Y'know, only getting his voicemail half hour after you said you'd meet would be a warning sign to me.

Yes, this.
I just wanted to add that usually a first date is something that both parties put forth a lot of effort for because if your're truly interested in the other person you want to make a good impression so that other person will be favorably impressed.
You yourself said you put some time into getting ready and most people do. They make sure the clothes are clean, wash up, fix the hair, etc. If he didn't even put in the minimal time to do this with you then I'd have to say he's not that interested. If he really wanted to meet you nothing would have stopped him, he'd have had the time to do it and made sure he primped himself enough to make a good impression.

It didn't sound like he had anything big and formal going on as he was in the car with friends when you called, this is really even more thoughtless because if he blew you off for a last minute get together then unfortunately I don't think he was really planning on carrying through with the meet. Sorry, this happens and it always sucks.

That guy was a complete idiot! You're a cutiepie! He would be a bad choice for making babies with, he's not bringing any intelligent DNA to the table!

lol, thanks. i don't plan on makin' no babies, and i think he smoked his sperm stone cold dead, so we don't have to worry about him making mini-asshats anytime soon ;) sometimes the gene pool just chlorinates itself.

Sounds to me like the first date meant more to you than to him and that it hurt your ego to find that out. I suspect that he was with friends and spent more time with them than he expected. That's fine, but he should have told you what happened and asked for another ten minutes to say goodbye to them. And laying it at your feet that you took too long - that's childish.

I would normally say that there are a helluva lot of men out there. But since you're bi, there are twice as many possibles. :)

Keep in mind that since you're a sub and he's vanilla, there was a pretty good chance it would not have worked anyway.

actually, i was just pissed that a rare chance to go out on the town with people my age got flushed in the dumper. if he called to let me know he didn't want to have that date anymore, i could've spent that time with friends.

as far as him being vanilla - i'm not really looking for prince charming or anything. i'm kinda dating around both the vanilla and not-so-vanilla pools. i'm 23 and don't want to be caged in with one person right now.

Next time don't ASSUME. didnt your daddy teach you ass-u-me?

yeah, yeah. makes an ass out of you and me. we made such vague plans to meet up so we could both have time to get ready. it was supposed to be a casual date and neither of us are very punctual. i got ready with half an hour to spare. not everything has to be set in stone.

1/2 hour for a female getting ready for a date is pretty damned speedy.

the warning sign to me was that i was directed to his voicemail when i told him i was out the door. because he texted me immediately afterward. he's out of the picture anyway, so it's cool.

Being late for a first date or a no show should be the absolute sure way of insuring that there will no second date, unless there is a real good apology with a sure fire excuse to follow it up. Anything more than 30 minutes late is considered a no show as i have left the meeting place by then. It all really boils down to the old saying "why make somebody your priority when you are only an option to them". Just not worth the hasle.

i've never heard that saying before. but completely ditching a first date all together is grounds for dismissal, lol.

From what I see, you're cute. You also sound bright, there will be more. Just go back to the drawing board.

The guy was an idiot. You're right to write him off. Judging by your profile, you're attractive, smart and fun - find someone who is likewise and enjoy yourself. To quote someone wiser than I - never make someone a priority who makes you an option. Someone cool will come along - don't settle.

Take it from a woman who has 4 boys, 3 of whom are 20, 22, 24 - boys are just a bit brain damaged at that age. No matter how good hearted they are, they just don't seem to think 100% of the time. Hang in there. Just because they have the random brain fart doesn't mean they are inherently selfish and bad. You just have to train them up in the way YOU want them to treat you.

Hell, I'm older than that and I still don't think 100% of the time. I make up for it with mad sexual skillz, tho.
